We had so much fun trick-or-treating last night. We had my parents, my sister and her family, Jake's mom, brother and his family and all his nieces and nephews over. We ate pizza and then took all 10 kids out trick-or-treating! We went around our whole block and got a whole bunch of candy! Jackson had so much fun and did so good! We ended the night in his Halloween Jammies, watching "It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown". I really didn't think he would sit and watch it since it's an older cartoon, but he was glued to the t.v. the entire time! So sweet and such fun memories!

These two were so into it this year. They didn't want anyone to help them with their buckets, Ha! They held onto them the whole time!

Our whole parade of trick-or-treaters.

While trick or treating, we ran into Darth Vader. :-)

I'm so happy to have a free evening tonight! It's been a while since I've had nothing to do on a Friday night. October is such a busy month for us with birthday parties and fall activities, I haven't had an evening free in a long time! I plan on doing a whole bunch of NOTHING tonight. :-)

Now that Halloween is over, I'm already getting excited for Thanksgiving! Bring on the turkey, chicken and dumplings and pumpkin pie!! Being pregnant during the holidays is gonna be fun! :-)

Starting next week, my dad will be putting a second bathroom in our house!! I'm so excited. We've lived in our house for 6 years now with one small bathroom. It will be so nice to have another bathroom and will make selling our house, in the next couple years, a little bit easier too. :-) It's going in our basement, which will be so convenient when we are down in the family room. I will be sure to post pictures when it's done.

Jackson had his 2 year Dr. check-up this past Monday. He weighed 31.4 lbs (75-90%) and he measured 37 inches tall (95%). He's getting so big! He had to get 2 shots (one of those being the flu shot) and have some blood drawn for a lead test, which wasn't fun, but all things considered, he did pretty well and enjoyed his cookies for being such a good boy! That should be the last of the shots until Kindergarten, thank goodness!
